You see, that is why we need editors.  I completely left out the par 3 course and the two ended driving range, and the other hospitality shack at the end of 18 and the nearly 10minute cart ride to #1 tee.  But, one of my written notes on my yardage card was also to widen the left approach of #4 and re-set the cart path back about 15 yards.  It is too close as it comes around the left and rear of that green.

And, you can also see I'm not very into pop culture and such as I missed the call on Micheal Moore who did the book "Roger and Me".  But with your baseball hat on over a full thick mop of curled hair, and your glasses, you do look like that guy, Michael, I think.

Ty, I took an old pitching wedge on most of my walks through the boulder and grass fields and tapped it as I went.  You should see how dinged up it is on the sole now from beating those rocks as I looked for my strays. :-\  Yikes, you hit iron off the first tee?  Even if it was the middle tees playing at 581 and downhill all the way... :o  When I first saw the card with 3 par 5s on the front side with yardages of 661, 651 and 608 from the back tees, I thought, 'holy crap what did I get myself into!'   But, as we saw, the first two have the downhill line of play - shortening them up considerably.

Gene,

Sutton Bay is almost directly due north of Valtentine, NE.  It is about 30-35 (crow) miles north of Pierre, SD, and located on the east banks of Lake Oahe.  The small town of Agar is about 15-20 miles east of Sutton Bay.
